"USN-3212-1 and USN-3212-2 fixed a vulnerabilitiy in LibTIFF. This
update provides a subset of corresponding update for Ubuntu 12.04 ESM.

It was discovered that LibTIFF incorrectly handled certain malformed
images. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a
specially crafted image, a remote attacker could crash the
application, leading to a denial of service, or possibly execute
arbitrary code with user privileges.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues."
